Nice little green bottle, quite similar to the export one. The two kinds were next to each other, and I picked this one up by "accident". Nice colour really, but the taste was a bit off-putting, sweet in a bad way (plums/raisins maybe). Seems a bit unbalanced. Rerate: Well, guess I was a bit mistaken last time, better this time, but still not that special. No trace of strange sweetness/fruity flavor from the last bottle. Burnt malts are dominant here, giving it a coffeish taste. Seems more robust now. +1 in flavor and overall impression.

(can) Aroma is sweet with a hint of apricot/peach. Large amount of head on pouring. Taste non-offensive. Sweetness does not come out much in the flavor and only a vague hint of malt and hops. Another mild Austrian brew that would taste good after a day of skiing but not when you want a good beer flavor

Typical lager color, small but steady white head. Fresh hoppy aroma. Well-balanced hoppied pils but nothing special. (5/3/5/2/10 2.5)
Re-rate, can (BB 07/2007). Pale yellow, small white head. Mild woody hoppy, a bit vegetably nose. Sweet malty, hints of grassy hoppyness somewhere. Standard low-quality bulk lager. (2/2/3/2/6 1.5)

Bottled. Pale golden. Lightly bready, thin and clean. The some grass and a vague trace of hops. Not really as awful as you'd expect the combintion of "Brau Union" and "Ice" to be.

Dark brown coloured body with a soapy tan head. Aroma of malt, slight grapes, raisins and some metal. Medium to Light-bodied; Sweet flavour with some malt present, some caramel and a bit of some raisin sweetness. Very light and subdued aftertaste-almost nothing there! Overall, a sub-par beer and one that really should be overlooked! I bought this twelve ounce bottle (Best by 01.2005) at Beers of the World in Rochester, New York and sampled it on 07.December.2003.

Pale yellowish brew with a medium head. Sweet and very light beer. This is good for hot summer days under the sun. I don't think there is a need to drink this more then once...

Bottled. Although the bottle I got from my fellow homebrew club member's basement was dated "Best by 3/01," it still bore up in pretty good shape. A sudsy head over the usual straw body. I can taste a little of the Dortmunder style here; certainly a little more malty sweetness than an American beer, without being sugary, and a hint of German hops. To paraphrase their own slogan; Nicht so “Gut” as a DAB, “Besser” than a Beck's.
